After 14 Years and 20 Seasons, the Iconic Reality Show Bows Out
On Tuesday, September 8, Kim Kardashian revealed the conclusion of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” (KUWTK) after an impressive run of 14 years and 20 seasons. The 39-year-old celebrity shared a concise five-paragraph statement on Instagram and Twitter, addressing her combined audience of 254 million followers. While the announcement was somewhat understated for a family known for their extravagant lifestyle, it was fitting as they reflect on their journey.
In her message, Kim honored the platforms that propelled their rise to fame, highlighting how social media transformed her and her siblings from life in the quiet suburbs of Calabasas, California—once frequented by figures like Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan—into global megastars. This evolution has fundamentally reshaped the concept of celebrity in the modern era.
